4 weeks old refusing bottles

[Laulie98]

Hi all.
Yesterday my house started coming down with a bug me and my 19 month toddler started getting severe vomiting and diarrhea yesterday evening around 7pm. I also have a 4 week old newborn when he woke for his bottle during the night at 5am he projectile vomited the whole thing up and he is usually quite good with keeping bottles down, every bottle since apart from 1 bottle he has brought back up. He usually guzzles 4 ounces but hasn't took any more than 2 ounces today, could this be him also coming down with this bug or should i go get him checked out asap?

I don’t think him likely having the same bug and getting him checked out are mutually exclusive. I would prob call 111 for advice for a newborn. They will prob ask you questions to see if he is dehydrated eg number of wet nappies. Keep giving him small feeds as he’ll still be getting some of it in him.

Little and often OP! Watch out for dry nappies - he needs to be weeing. Hope you're all ok
